I saw someone (mercifully not on this website) try to argue that since Goodbye Volcano High ends with everyone dying from the meteor, it's saying that the cast - and by extension queer people in general - are better off dead.
Like... buddy, did we even play the same game? Goodbye Volcano High is a TRAGEDY. The entire POINT is that they didn't deserve this, none of them did, everyone should've had long bright successful futures doing what they loved with the people they loved, but because of events so unfathomably far outside their control, absolutely none of them got the chance. They will not go quiet into the night, they will rage against their untimely end, but into the night they must inevitably go - and is it not so profoundly, unbelievably sad that this is their fate?

The game Goodbye Volcano High finally comes out tomorrow. Three long years after its initial reveal.
It's a story about cute dinosaur teenagers during the last months before a meteor hits the planet. It has elements of visual novel, point-and-click adventure, and rhythm game (likely among other things not yet revealed). It is animated and voice-acted like a 2D animated movie. The player interacts with the game in many ingenious ways to feel like they are inside the mind of the protagonist, a punk pterodactyl named Fang, as the story unfolds and decisions are made. The music is sweet too.
The developers would love to reach 50 thousand Steam wishlists before the game releases. They are very close to reaching it. If you are interested, here is the link:
Can't wait.

Just found out how Goodbye Volcano High ends and I've been indescribably angry for the past three days. There is no love or hope to be found in death, and the romanticization of doomerism is a fucking disease. No, sadness and pain aren't inevitable truths of life. They're emotions we evolved as a species to serve as warning signs that something fucked up is happening and if we instead treat them as carthatic or beautiful and worthy of artistry then we're failing at natural selection in spectacular fashion. The last thing the world needs right now is a game that teaches people to cope with unjust suffering and death beyond their control. What we need right now is inspiration to rebel against those who make us suffer. It we were to promote the acceptance of pain and death as the way to go and tell people to just swallow their sadness as an inevitable truth of life, then we're functionally no different than fundamental Christians who want to make climate change worse so they can go to heaven once the world ends or something.
Edit: I didn't mean the fundamental Christian metaphor as a personal insult or anything like that, I just want to highlight my hatred of what I perceive to be an anti-problem solving attitude and explain how ridiculous it sounds to me.
Edit 2: I cannot stress how much I don't hate this game or the people who made it, I just think this game reminded me of a common conception people have for tragic stories that I personally disagree with and find ridiculous. Namely, I do not get why people see tragedy as inherently profound and sadness as an emotion that everyone should want to feel.
